sug~ECT: North Beach Town Center Plan Community Workshop Sept. 16
The Planning Department will hold a community workshop on Tuesday, September 16, 2008
from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM at the North Shore Youth Center. The purpose of the workshop is
to give an update on implementation of the Town Center vision plan, which was adopted by
the Mayor and City Commission on July 11, 2007.
The primary topic of discussion will be the proposed new zoning code that the Planning
Department has drafted for the Town Center. The proposed zoning code would create a
special district called "Town Center" (TC) with three sub-districts tailored to replace the
current CD-3, CD-2 and RM-1 zoning districts. The TC district is intended to enhance the
built environment with custom-tailored land use, urban design and parking regulations. The
area affected by the proposed TC zoning revision is bounded on the north by 72 Street, on
the east by Collins Avenue, on the south by 69 Street and on the west by the Indian Creek
waterway.
The Planning Department is seeking community input, which will be used to shape the draft
code before it progresses to the public hearing process.
